Sarah Shelton 1846 - 1906 Colchester Essex
« on: Sunday 20 April 14 13:13 BST (UK) »
Trying to trace my gt gt grandmother's male relatives as my dad said one of his relatives was at Rorkes Drift, South Africa (Zulu wars).  I have researched his dad's side with no luck but can't find Sarah's maiden name or even if / when she married John Shelton in Colchester Essex.  Anybody out there have any info please? Thanks!!

Thanks for looking all of you. Don't know which side of the family. Could be Bareham?
